They get installed wherever on any system. You'll find them in /usr/lib on Debian. You'll find them in /opt/lib on some System Vish systems. You'll find them in /usr/local/ssl/lib on systems that take the OpenSSL defaults. You'll find them in /usr/local/lib if put there by FreeBSD ports or by system administrators who like them there. You'll find them in /usr/pkg/lib, /home/luser/openssl/lib, /afs/some-university/OpenSourcePackages/cryptography/OPENSSL/0.9.6e/lib, or wherever the damn administrator wants them. If you have a point, make it. Otherwise let's drop this thread. I'll help by not responding to any further content-free messages (and not generating any more). Cheers, -- Jacques A.
